Anyway..I've been stuggling lately to find some good things to fill the days until the blessed coming of September. The beginning of a release of all thing oppressive. In my mind anyway. So here is a small tribute to my "summer recovery program."
Recover Strategy #1:
Spend Lots of Time at the Pool
Recovery Strategy #2:
Catch Frogs--These pictures are hard to see. I wasn't about to take the 6 peeing frongs inside to get a better picture. We can catch so many frogs just walking around our apartments. My girlie girls and I love this...which is crazy since none of us would dare touch one.
Recovery Strategy #3:
Paint. Even at night in the dark...even if it gets on the sidewalk. Oops.
Recovery Strategy #4
Eat lots of ice cream. With Grandpa.
Recovery Strategy #5
Make a fun new project (for the Hamm Bash--more on that later) BURPIES!
Recovery Strategy #6
Love on Lil Major --tilt your head...I couldn't get it to flip.
Recovery Strategy #7
Play Ball (Addy is #1)
Recovery Stategy #8
Visit with old friends (Meshellyn and her baby Em)
sounds like a pretty good summer to me! =) love you!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Looks like you are making the best of the summer.
ReplyDeleteHi there. I wandered across your blog today and read about your sadness this summer. I just wanted to offer you big hugs and prayers from a stranger.
ReplyDeletelove the fabrics! too fun. glad you are able to do some things that bring a little bit of joy to your life, even in the pain.
ReplyDeleteI am going to a family bash this 4th too. Ours isn't near so big or so organized. But... we are going to have at least 21 people, probably more, plus friends.
ReplyDeleteI think you have excellent strategies to chase away the doldrums.
I am going to have to get you to add one more... hanging out with new friends... ME! (I have to get up there)
Now those look like fantastic strategies! You go!!
ReplyDeleteI need to think up a few strategies of my own, I'm afraid! I like the ice cream one - maybe we'll do that a LOT! :-)
Oh, and I LOVE the burpies! Do tell us more!
Those burpies are cute! I love hearing about what you make for the auction, you're always so creative! Please do tell about all of the fun things that people made this year and more about your burpies too. Love the photos!!!
ReplyDeleteHi again :) Thanks for recommending Kung Fu Panda! I can't wait to take my little one to it. He LOVES when animals do silly things so it'll be perfect. I should have done it the first time but he usually watches Pixar at home so I just figured...
ReplyDeleteHappy Independence Day!
